Sports can make even the most calm of people freak out about their hometown team. Bets between friends and politicians are made and often times it can be all in good fun.
Just try and not make a fool out of yourself in the process.
Atlanta is wanting to support their team and will do it by any means necessary. Even if it means not selling Sam Adams beer. There is never any venom in these types of moves; what’s the point?

This is more goofy than anything else. There have to be better boycotts than this. What if they boycotted UGGS instead just to rub it in Tom Brady’s face? Considering they live in a warmer climate they wouldn’t need the UGGS anyway but it is the thought that counts. Just act like you’re making a big stink about something without really doing anything.
(It’s also worth noting that while Sam Adams was created in Boston, it’s largely brewed elsewhere; namely Cincinnati and Lehigh Valley.)
On the complete other side, what can Patriots fans do to rub their Super Bowl wins in the face of Falcons fans? Maybe stop drinking Coca-Cola?
These boycotts are normally made in jest but even typing it out, it’s just silly. Someone needs to put an end to them, and for now, it won’t happen until after this Super Bowl.
Let’s all be better as fans and find a better way to stick it to opposing fans.
